Very serious concerns from someone with first hand information, knowledge, and experience within the inner circle of the NDP.
I would absolutely take this seriously. If this was the NDP that I want people to vote for both federally and provincially with Nenshi, I would want to clean these extremities up within the party.
But maybe it’s just a party that is needing $ and votes any way possible, so they might just have to turn a blind eye to this. I hope not. But it doesn’t look good for them. |
I think I’ll start to take your position on anti-semitism and bigotry within the federal NDP in general a little more seriously when you start holding the guy that supported the protestors in Ottawa who were literally carrying confederate and swastika flags around to the same standard.
Seriously, do you have any actual statements from the party or its elected members that suggests they are trying to actively promote anti-semitism?
Here’s the unbroken link for anyone who wants to read the context of what happened to the person being quoted in doctorfever’s post:

The great irony here is that doctorfever doesn’t seem at all concerned by the Islamophobia allegations. Go figure.
